Cinematics

Hello,

this question might sound dumb, but I’m a beginner and I wanted to know how this all works at first. So here is my question:

Do I need to create an animation for each cinematic? If a character should do something special, not as jumping, shooting or so where you just can use the same animation over and over again. For example if I want to set up a sequence where a character interacts with a special object in a certain way.

I’m asking this, because it would take many many months to create all animations…

Thanks in advance

Hi Nightware -

You can reuse Animations as necessary to what you are trying to achieve. I know that most cinematics will have a lot of very custom animation sets to highlight a specific set of actions or events, but a jump, walk, run, or even a basic interact animation can be reused.

Thank You
